People want overnight results. They are gung-ho for a few months but then it gets too difficult, too costly (like any war is cheap) or they are afraid they might have to really put up or shut the h*ll up and make a personal sacrifice like so many other brave Americans have done.
Immediately following the 9/11 acts of war, you could have caught a cold from the flags being waved by both sides, now, the insults, petty childish hate and epithets hurling is harming everyone, mostly our military people doing this dirty job.

The key words to your question are "ever again".
There has never been a war where the US was involved that involved the blessing of the vast majority of Americans.
Why do you think it took so long to get involved with WWII? Why are people still saying Roosevelt knew about Pearl Harbor, and did nothing to stop it.
My grandma says there were many anti-war people during WWII, they just didn't have the means (technology) to make their objections known.

Like Afghanistan? Do you hear anyone screaming "Get us out of Afghanistan"?
The Korean war continues to this day as well, so I guess that Americans support that one too.
Most Americans supported Iraq in 1990, but many opposed the way that Dubya ended the war via invasion. And, quite frankly, most have jumped on that bandwagon in an effort to gain political power, or because they just think that it's the cool thing to do.

Yes, if we or one of our allies is actually attacked, the vast majority of Americans will support such a war. A majority of Americans supported taking action in Afghanistan.

If the war is acknowledged as necessary, of course it would. Few to no one opposed either World War like they are this. The only other war with opposition like this, that I can think of is Vietnam. But something tells me for bringing this up, I'm gonna get a couple of people attacking me.

Yes, when the desired outcome is clearly articulated and the enemy is easily recognized.
Americans like wars like WWII or even Korea where the agressor is clearly identified and the desired outcome is evident. Even Korea suffered a little from a lack of decisiveness when MacArthur suggested nuking Korea.

YES, God forbidding, the USA is ever attacked again like
9/11/01 and much worse than that attack. Maybe, just maybe, the people will wake up to the fact that their are
SOBs that want to destroy this country and kill as many Americans that they can.

The vast majority blessed the invasion of Afghanistan and rightly so. I would still bless it if it contained any element at all about finding and capturing OBL, but sadly it no longer does.

Do nearly all of yankee Jews blindly help Israel? Did you're taking a ballot? How did you come to this end? You anticipate plenty that's no longer in information. properly, to respond to your question. They achieve this because of the fact they see Israel as there non secular and cultural native land. plenty as many Irish-people see eire as their cultural native land and deliver money to help reasons there (whether they have in no way been there). i'm no longer Jewish yet I help Israel in its war.

Yes, the next time Muslims denoate a bomb in the US or crash planes.
They will be able to do it, because liberals have castrated common sense security, by searching old ladies and little girls in airports in order not to offend Muslims.
